Artist Trust is adapting our work to be the most helpful for Washington State artists during COVID-19. Our programs have shifted to provide relief funding and resources to meet basic needs like housing, food assistance, and unemployment, and our communications are highlighting how artists are coping in crisis. As of today, May 29, we have distributed $525,000 in COVID-19 Artist Relief Funds to a total of 307 artists.  

Starting this month, we’re extending our member newsletter to all artists providing greater access to information, resources, and opportunities that can help you right now. Read this month’s Artist Newsletter here.
